megközelítenek

Megközelítenek is a Hungarian verb form meaning “they approach” or “they bring closer.” It is the third-person plural present indicative form of the verb megközelíteni, which means to approach, to come near, or to reach by moving closer. The prefix meg- adds a sense of completion or attainment, and közelít- is the stem derived from közel, meaning near. In usage, megközelítenek describes multiple subjects carrying out the action of approaching a target, such as a place, object, or person. The form is also used in figurative senses, for example to indicate that a value, goal, or threshold is being approached or approximated in calculations, planning, or estimation.

Grammatical notes: Megközelítenek parallels other present-tense forms of megközelíteni and must agree with a plural subject. The word is part of a broader class of prefixed verbs in Hungarian where meg- signals closure toward a target. Related lexical items include megközelítés (the act or process of approaching) and a suite of derivations built on megközelíteni.
